↳ In-reply-to » How come no one ever talks about Mambos 1-4? Is there some big secret about them? Did they contain some forbidden dance steps or something?

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Indeed it is, and apparently it’s the only numbered Mambo anyone is cleared to talk about.

I’m sure it doesn’t mean anything, and it’s not like there’s some huge conspiracy involving the military-industrial complex, the Illuminati, and the lizard people to control what mambos people know about, but…

I mean, if I disappear tomorrow, I’m sure it won’t be for having asked about the mambos… šŸ˜‰

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Yeah, it’s a CD from my cabinet. It’s old, though, I got it when buying CDs was just a normal thing to do. šŸ˜…

It’s not necessarily my ā€œmissionā€ to collect this stuff, but I still buy new CDs these days. I just like having something physical, I like reading the booklet, I enjoy the artwork. Guess I’m just old-fashioned.

But it has become rare. The last one was ā€œLeitmotifā€ by Dredg about 1.5 years ago. And that’s an old record as well (1998), I just never got around to buying it back then.

Okay, I admit it. Maybe I do collect this shit a little bit. 🤣

@zyak@twtxt.z85b.xyz @klaxzy@klaxzy.net It’s a musl problem and it’s probably/hopefully not that horrible in practice, because ā€œsaneā€ setups don’t use PasswordAuthentication yes anyway. It’s a real vuln, yes, but I think it’s over-hyped – it’s not like every SSH server is wide open.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ll come back to that, once I looked into troff. :-)

I just watched Linotype – The Film: In Search of the Eighth Wonder of the World (2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDM-EbDCiQg What a treat!

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Not much honestly šŸ˜… During the storms Picket sat at ~0.2 of a CPU core (peaks ~0.4), up from ~0.02 at idle, so ~10Ɨ but still tiny. Memory didn’t budge: ~650 MiB working set before, during and after. Picket’s doing its job; it’s the git forge behind it that would’ve fallen over.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks for sharing that, I always like reading about other peoples’ tooling setups (especially for desktop publishing).

@prologic@twtxt.net Just curious, what kind of CPU / memory usage does Picket show while dealing with one of these storms?

I wouldn’t blame anyone for abandoning public git repos in 2026… The scrapers just don’t seem to care about the harm they do (or the sites they crash). I guess it’s an ā€œexternalā€ cost, and doesn’t cost them anything, so… ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah! It was precisely that talk that got me into groff/troff in the first place. 😊 Haven’t seen it in a while. Maybe I should have rewatched it before making that blog post. šŸ˜…

The groff syntax is quite alien indeed. Because it’s so terse. I mean, have fun decyphering stuff like that:

@zyak@twtxt.z85b.xyz Heck yeah, that looks really nice, mate! My last shot at them was way back in school. But it never really worked out even remotely like I imagined in my head. My colors always mixed, it was impossible to keep them separated. Maybe too much water and the wrong paper. I should give it a go again, too.

@arne@uplegger.eu Geile Idee, der sieht echt klasse aus. :-) Mir gefƤllt auch besonders gut, dass Du den Gelben-Sack-Schriftzug schƶn mittig oben platziert hast. Macht richtig was her. <3

Wir haben heute auf unserer kleinen Wanderung auch einige Leute ihre Drachen steigen lassen sehen und da musste ich sofort an Dich denken. Freut mich riesig, dass das bei Dir trotz Windmangel ein geglücktes Unterfangen war. :-) Leider hatten wir dafür sehr kräftigen, bitterkalten Nordostwind und mussten dann weiter, es war einfach zu eisig im Schatten. Ich hätte gern noch weiter zugeschaut.

↳ In-reply-to » 🪢 Tying Knots 🪢 -- Specifically one kind of not. A "Bowline" Knot. There are two ways to do this, I believe this version is called a Cowboy Bowline whilst this other version is the more Conventional Bowline knot. I normally use the later when tying down my awning on my van when we go out on trips. #knots

@prologic@twtxt.net The second method is the only one I remember, because that’s the one I’m used to. :-D No matter how you tie it, the result is always the same. So, I agree, both are equally effective in my opinion.

@prologic@twtxt.net I also use the conventional ā€œthe snake jumps out the hole, around the tree and back into the hole againā€ method.
